Los Angeles, CA – March
27, 2014 – Humanoids enters the digital arena by offering its
extensive catalog of high quality graphic novels through its own app
— simply titled Humanoids Comics —
as well as via Google Play and the iBookStore.

The publisher of The
Incal, the international bestseller created
by Jodorowsky and Mœbius, started delivering its titles in the
digital format a few months ago, by giving readers that bought a
physical book from the Humanoids online store free access to the
corresponding digital eBook online. Now, Humanoids customers will
have the choice of buying the physical + digital eBook pack (with the
equivalent digital edition still being offered at no additional
cost), or the digital eBook only. New titles will be offered on the
same day as their physical editions arrive in stores, embracing the
industry standard “Day-and-Date” policy.

Humanoids, Inc. Director,
Alex Donoghue, said, “To give people the chance to get a real ride
through our many universes, the downloading of the Humanoids App will
come with a $25 credit to be spent on the purchase of any first
volume of any of our series. This offer, which will be available for
a month, will be a great opportunity for our readers to discover new
titles, as well explore the Humanoids App as not just a graphic novel
and comics reader, but also a useful and easy platform to browse the
Humanoids catalog on the iPad, full of many exciting features and
exclusive deals.”

Please note that Humanoids’ titles in
the Apple iBookStore are compatible with the iBooks App and all Apple
iOS devices, while titles on Google Play are compatible with Android
and Apple iOS devices.

HUMANOIDS: Launched under the French
name of Les Humanoïdes Associés in Paris in December, 1974, the
company published the magazine Métal Hurlant. The title’s
numerous foreign editions (including the American, Heavy Metal)
revolutionized the world of comics and pop culture forever.

Humanoids has since become one of the
world’s most successful international graphic novel publishers, as
well as the only European one to have successfully established itself
in the US and UK markets. The company - which relocated its French
headquarters to Los Angeles, California last year - has also just
opened a branch in Tokyo, Japan, where its flagship title, The
Incal (by Alexandro Jodorowsky and Mœbius), has topped the
bestselling charts of the non-Japanese comics for the past three
years. In addition to its various publishing activities, numerous
Humanoids titles - out of its vast catalog of intellectual properties
- are currently being adapted for the big screen.
